Two ideas. - Get them to install popularity-contest. This will make their machine show up on popcon.debian.org, and we would assume there are users of the given machine. Not very accurate, as machines != individuals. Easy to fool, but I believe we should assume people are honest. - Set up a wiki page, and get people to put up their name and mail address (perhaps slightly obfuscated to make it harder for address harwesters), and count the number of names on the page. When the count is reached, send email to all the addresses asking them to confirm that the list is correct. Easy to fool, but I believe we should assume people are honest. If we start to suspect non-existing people on the list, we can start asking for GPG signatures. I would recommend the last option myself, but would like all m68k machines to report to popcon.debian.org too. :) > Is it intended that a user should mail debian-release to say "Hi! > I'm using port X!"? I doubt so. That is probably not necessary, yes. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
